Re-issue.com Launches North America's First 0% Commission Resale Marketplace to Buy and Sell Clothing, Footwear and Accessories

Reissue FZ LLC., a Sustainable Luxury Startup, is Launching North America's First Commission-Free, Resale Marketplace, Focused on Menswear and Womenswear, Designer, Streetwear and Vintage Clothing


LOS ANGELES, Nov. 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reissue FZ LLC ("Reissue" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce the launch of North America's first commission-free, resale marketplace to buy and sell, men's and women's, designer, streetwear and vintage clothing, as well as footwear, and accessories.

The Company is seeking to address a void relinquished by existing high commission marketplaces and those that focus solely on menswear, in the current $15 billion market for resold garments, shoes and accessories, which is projected to grow to $47 billion globally by 2025 (not including traditional thrift stores).

The re-issue.com marketplace, a web based application, recently completed a beta testing phase which saw over 4500 individual users, from 65 different countries successfully access and navigate the web app, which is now accessible by web browser and available for download on mobile and desktop.

Beta testing proved to be highly effective in identifying and solving over 250 bugs and small design improvements to enhance the user experience. Furthermore, during this beta phase users created over 3300 listings, totalling nearly $1.5 million in value.

In order to process sales safely and securely the Company has partnered with PayPal to be the exclusive payment processor for all transactions on the marketplace. Re-issue.com requires all users to signup and login to the application through their verified PayPal account via a PayPal gateway. Requiring login through PayPal reduces the amount of sensitive personal data stored by Reissue and reduces the risk of fraudulent listings as every verified PayPal account is linked to a bank account.

Additionally this exclusive partnership ensures that every single purchase is covered by PayPal's authenticity guarantee. If a buyer does not receive a purchased item, or if the item is inauthentic or not as described, PayPal will issue a full refund. 

Re-issue.com does not charge users a fee for posting listings or facilitating sales, however the marketplace does offer additional paid features to promote listings that range in price from $1 to $10.

The Company looks forward to deploying a content delivery network in the near future as part of our comprehensive global expansion strategy to access additional markets.

Sustainability

Each year, billions of new garments, accessories, and shoes are purchased with half of these items eventually ending up in landfills or incinerators. If each person on the planet bought one second hand item instead of a new one, it would save the equivalent of:

  • 5.7 billion lbs of CO2 and Greenhouse Gasses
  • 25 billion gallons of water
  • 449 million lbs of waste

To put that into perspective, that's the equivalent of planting 66 million trees, taking 1.25 billion less showers, and filling 18,700 less garbage trucks.
